Hello 

I'm having trouble viewing  email using Thunderbird (V 38.4.0)  from a new sender (Gorilla Trades). When I open some of his emails, but not all, they are blank. When I view the message source  on the ones that are blank, it says "Your mail reader is too old to view this MIME-encoded message".  Note: I have no trouble viewing this same email using my webmail. Also all other incoming Email work fine.

Any suggestions? Dennis

What are you set to under View|Message Body As? Try "Original HTML" if it's not already on that setting.

It sounds as if you could be seeing a message aimed at users of email programs that can't process HTML-formatted content.

Hi Zenos I checked and found I am using "Original HTML" I also tried "simple" and plain text to no avail. How can I check to see if the message was aimed at those that can't process HTML? Or is it possible for me to forward one of the emails to you?
